Families and adults across Broward County, from Deerfield Beach, Coconut Creek and Parkland to Coral Springs, Pompano Beach and beyond, often reach the same wall: a school, a doctor, an attorney or your own questions call for formal testing, and nobody tells you where to start. Aurora Counseling and Wellness Center gives you one point of contact for the whole process.
Under Florida law, formal psychological test administration and interpretation is reserved for licensed psychologists. Najla Sallum, a Florida Licensed Clinical Social Worker (SW19846) with more than 14 years of clinical practice, coordinates the testing with licensed Florida psychologist partners, conducts the clinical interviews and developmental history herself, in English, Português or Español, and integrates everything into a single written report.
What testing can answer
- ADHD assessment for children, teens and adults
- Autism (ASD) assessment for children, teens and adults
- Cognitive testing
- Personality assessment
- Trauma and PTSD instruments
- Diagnostic clarification when the picture is unclear
How testing works here
It starts with a clinical interview with Najla: history, what you or your child are experiencing, and what question the testing needs to answer. The formal testing itself is administered and scored by a licensed Florida psychologist partner. Najla then integrates the psychologist's findings with the interview and history into one written report with recommendations and next steps.
The report can be shared with a school, a prescriber or an attorney, depending on why the testing was requested. Najla is an LCSW, not a psychologist: she coordinates and integrates within her own license, and the psychologist performs the testing.
Interviews in your language
Clinical interviews, developmental history and family sessions are available in English, Português and Español. For a Broward County parent who thinks in Portuguese or Spanish, that means explaining your child's history in the language you actually remember it in, with nothing lost in translation.
